Subject: [GIT PULL] KVM: x86: Documentation updates for 6.7

Doc updates for 6.7.  The bulk is a cleanup of the kvm_mmu_page docs, which are
sadly already stale because I neglected to update the docs when removing the
TDP MMU's async root zapping :-(

The following changes since commit 5804c19b80bf625c6a9925317f845e497434d6d3:

  Merge tag 'kvm-riscv-fixes-6.6-1' of https://github.com/kvm-riscv/linux into HEAD (2023-09-23 05:35:55 -0400)

  KVM: x86/pmu: Add documentation for fixed ctr on PMU filter (2023-09-27 14:23:51 -0700)

----------------------------------------------------------------
KVM x86 Documentation updates for 6.7:

 - Fix various typos, notably a confusing reference to the non-existent
   "struct kvm_vcpu_event" (the actual structure is kvm_vcpu_events, plural).

 - Update x86's kvm_mmu_page documentation to bring it closer to the code
   (this raced with the removal of async zapping and so the documentation is
   already stale; my bad).

 - Document the behavior of x86 PMU filters on fixed counters.
